Hello ladies! I’m so happy to be a part of this support group, it’s comforting knowing I’m not alone during this transition 😊 I am 47 (close to 48) and have been experiencing peri for almost 5 years. Back in Dec I had a uterine biopsy due to some spotting and because I hadn’t had a period in 4 months. Biopsy was benign. I was almost to my year mark (10 1/2 months) without a period and it returned 6/7/18 and then 23 days later I had another period. There was nothing out of the ordinary, periods were the same as when I was regular. I’m just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and is this considered normal peri pattern. My physician laughed and told me that she has seen women go nearly to the year mark and have periods again. However, my gynecologist errors on the side of caution and wants me to have a saline ultrasound to make sure fibroids or thickened lining isn’t the cause. Arghhh, the only silver lining is my hot flashes are somewhat non existent since I’m having my period again 😊
Hi Dawn...welcome to the fun!!
What you're experiencing is identical to my experience....down to the ultrasound. I do have a fibroid so I'm going in for a procedure Monday and to discuss ultrasound results.
Also, I've gone 11months and started up again in a pattern similar to yours and many other ladies bnb kn this forum. And I agree it's a comfort to know you're not alone!!
Thank you katyD211! It is definitely a roller coaster of a ride! I thought for sure I was done, was even planning a party to celebrate :-) Best of luck to you on Monday with
your procedure.
